I've arrived a bit late today to see any real action other than to watch and chat with a few locals that were out foiling but the weather here is perfect .. 
The sun is about to go down but I've just spotted them out racing (or practicing) and I don't think I've seen wing foilers going so fast.. I counted about 20 of them.
Looks like a great location for both flat water racing and waves
. NZ definitely on the bucket list. Did you bring your gear to wing as well?
(Those pump legs of the slalom races look brutal!)

Perfect venue for a wing foiling comp..
My wife is from Tauranga and no I don't have my gear unfortunately.. We just spent a week at Queenstown Mt biking and doing all the tourist things.. What an amazing place..
I just spotted a mobile sauna that someone had towed to the beach behind their car.. Never seen that before..
Just found out it is $15 for the hour..

As you're in to mtb, check out Rotorua (45 minute drive from there) ?

Thanks.. I've been to Rotorua before and we plan on going there again this time..
Great place.. Bad smells 
My son Anthony (antman) is competing over there - hes having a fat time. Especially the tow and prone surfing when not competing - he said its awesome.

No probs.. He was ripping out there..
Anthony is a nice kid..
Looking the other way at Leisure Island in the distance (even though you can walk out to it)..
Prototype Armstrong wing in the foreground..
My iPhone couldn't zoom far enough to capture it but at one time I counted more than 40 wings out there..

That' the ugliest graphics on a wing, Armie taking the back & white theme too far. Lovely beach, as I sit in UK seeing mushy snow falling in 1C

Totally disagree! ... nicest wing out there graphically IMO... also comparatively their last wing was crap!
They certainly stood out on the water and graphics are a personal taste.. I liked them and they're a huge improvement over the last two.. Arnie wouldn't confirm that the production wings will look like this..
The handles felt good..
